For example, the user's age, gender, address, preferences, the URL of a site that he or she has visited or recently visited, the history of the content provided by the user in advance, and the composition of the initial screen set by the user in advance. It can be understood. Here, the preferred fields may be classified into music, travel, sports, economy, education, and entertainment.

The information generator 350 generates a dynamic UI information of the initial screen for providing the content by referring to the characteristic identified by the property checker 340.

FIG. 4 is a block diagram illustrating a detailed configuration of the information generator illustrated in FIG. 3. The information generator includes a controller generator 410, a menu generator 420, and a mainframe generator 430.

The controller generation unit 410 generates UI information for displaying a controller interface including a UI for fixedly provided information and a search function.

The fixed information may include weather or user login status of the region where the terminal is currently located. In order to collect such information, the communication unit 310 may communicate with the CDE-based intelligent application server 280. Can be. Here, the terminal may use a position detecting means provided to check its position. Therefore, when the terminal is not provided with the position sensing means, the controller generator 410 may generate UI information on weather information of a region previously set by the user.

The menu generator 420 serves to generate UI information for displaying a menu interface including an icon allocated for each type in order to select a type of content from a user.

That is, the user may select one of the icons of the menu in order to select the content to be provided by the user, and the menu generator 420 generates such a menu type interface.

Here, the icon included in the menu interface may be changed in position on the initial screen according to a result of the check by the characteristic checking unit 340. For example, according to the frequency of use by the user, they are arranged in order from the top to the bottom. Accordingly, the user can easily be provided with content that matches his or her taste.

The mainframe generator 430 generates UI information for displaying a mainframe interface including content corresponding to the result of the verification by the characteristic checker 340.

For example, the mainframe generator 430 may generate a link including a URL of a recently visited site or a link including a URL of a type of a site mainly related to the visited site. In this case, the main plane generator 430 may determine the type, number, and layout of the content in consideration of the screen size, resolution, color reproduction capability, and the like of the terminal.

In addition, when the terminal is provided with a location detecting means to receive the current location from the terminal, the mainframe generation unit 430 may generate UI information including restaurant information that exists in the vicinity of the location.

In order to collect such information, the communication unit 310 may communicate with the CDE-based intelligent application server 280.

FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating a dynamic UI according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention and illustrates a configuration of an initial screen 600 provided to a terminal when a terminal user accesses to receive content.

In order to provide the dynamic UI service, the dynamic UI information providing apparatus 300 waits for a connection request of a terminal and receives a connection request (S710).

The access request message may include terminal information. Upon receiving the access request, the controller 330 may check whether the corresponding terminal is subscribed to the service with reference to the terminal information (S720). Thus, if the terminal is not subscribed to the service, the controller 330 terminates the provision of the dynamic UI service.

On the other hand, when the terminal is subscribed to the service, the control unit 330 transmits a control command to the characteristic check unit 340, and accordingly the characteristic check unit 340 checks the terminal characteristics and user characteristics (S730). . Detailed description of the terminal characteristics and user characteristics has been described above, and thus a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

If the dynamic UI service is not provided by the subscription system, the subscriber verification process by the controller 330 may be omitted.

The confirmed characteristic is transmitted to the information generating unit 350, and the information generating unit 350 generates dynamic UI information with reference to the received characteristic (S740). That is, to generate the UI information for the initial screen 600 for providing the content.

The generated dynamic UI information is transmitted to the terminal through the communication unit 310 (S750). The dynamic UI information may be written in XML. The terminal receiving the dynamic UI information may configure the initial screen 600 according to its characteristics and user characteristics by analyzing the dynamic UI information.

As described above, the dynamic UI information providing apparatus 300, which is a single device, provides a dynamic UI service. However, a module constituting the dynamic UI information providing apparatus 300 may exist as a separate device to provide a service. Of course.

For example, the dynamic UI service may be performed by the intelligent content recommendation and delivery system 240, and the role of the information generator 350 is performed by the intelligent subscriber information management server 241, and the storage unit ( The role of 320 is performed by the intelligent content delivery server 242, the role of the feature checker 340 is performed by the subscriber information collection server 243, and the roles of the communication unit 310 and the controller 330 are It may be performed by the IMS controller 244.

Although embodiments of the present invention have been described above with reference to the accompanying drawings, those skilled in the art to which the present invention pertains may implement the present invention in other specific forms without changing the technical spirit or essential features thereof.
